I am new to this club, and have read through threads about the VAN. It is a great thing you guys did and are doing for everyone. If someone can give me a e-mail address for paypal to give to the "gas fund", I would be honored to help a little.

For the VAN fund look at the top of the every page where it says PayPal Donate. Click on that to donate.
This VAN thing has turned into the wildest epic I have ever seen on the internet and we are sooo close to giving it to Dave and Kori. I will cry I bet when they get it at JP's. All the people who have helped Brad, RichS, ChrisReale, Karl, etc you done well! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) Geoff |

Thanks everyone.. I'm home now packing. .we will leave in a few minutes.
JP.. try my cell in about 1 hour. I should be on Hwy 5 by then. I have 2 other people with me.. Lyressa and Varik. Traffic getting home was "eventful" The van runs GREAT !! It pulls like a small freight train from 3k up. One of the guy's who helped me figure it all out said "that Flowmaster really woke up this stock van" He drives them 2-3 times a week and owns shop near HPH. Typically the vans have 2 mufflers and a CAT. B |

After we replaced the cat and installed a flowmaster, the van ran better, but after the timing was set right , brad had a smile from ear to ear when the van ran great!

I'm really happy to hear that. After all the drama of getting the engine replaced just to hear it couldn't get out of its own way was disheartening. Hopefully whatever grudge that van had with california it will leave at the state border.

Damit I wish I could go tomorow. It's ironic, because I really don't want to be where I have to tomorrow, but you do these thing's for your family. I would love to see the van get handed over and end this saga. I know there will be plenty of tears tomorrow watching dave drive that sob away:). There better be a LOT of pic's tomorrow.
Eric P.S. I'm missing Mrs. Brad too! Dam, she's suppost to be kinda hot (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) |

I assume no news is good news, so hopefully the van made it no problem?

QUOTE I really don't want to be where I have to tomorrow, but you do these thing's Yeah...I'll be in class until 5pm or so. Gives me just enough time to get home, get the 914, and get to JPs and watch everyone leave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) Now that JP's cancelled the sluts....
